• Inspection Fee

Rappahannock County has imposed a $50 fee to inspect rides that carnival or circus groups bring into the county.

The fee, established by the county supervisors Monday, affects only those troupes from outside the county.

It was first considered that all rides and amusements be inspected and subject to a fee.

“It’s going to have an impact on all the departments,” said board Chairman Hubert Gilkey. “They’ve been operating on a shoe string.”

The fee was then imposed only on groups that bring their rides into the county.
